Caileigh

Caileigh is an English spelling variant of the name Kaylee, itself a modern combination or anglicized form influenced by the Irish and Scottish Gaelic word céilidh, referring to a traditional social gathering with music and dance, as well as by the popular name suffix -lee meaning meadow or clearing in Old English. The name gained widespread use in English-speaking countries during the late twentieth century as part of a broader trend of phonetic respellings of sound-alike names. Related forms include Kaylee, Kayleigh, Kailey, and Caleigh.
